Summary

CVE-2022-49713 is a vulnerability affecting the Linux kernel's USB subsystem. The issue lies in the dwc2 driver, specifically in the dwc2_hcd_init function. When usb_create_hcd fails to obtain the required resources, it does not free the allocated memory for the hcd, resulting in a memory leak. To address this issue, the code now goes to the error2 label instead of error1 to prevent the memory leak.
